what's up it's IND demion and lately there's been some nonsense surrounding the upcoming soulslike action RPG black myth Wukong which looks awesome I honestly can't wait to play this game when it drops and it turns out according to rumors that black myth wukong's director is out here whipping his meat out and rejecting the woke weirdos and if these rumors are true and Wukong keeps the same energy we're about to see a mega hit on our hands fellas Beyond this there's other games being slammed for the opposite reasons like a Assassin's Creed shadows and much more but let's get into this so this all started when a user on Twitter named pirate Nation decided to tweet something about Wukong according to the translations provided from Chinese social media platform weebo which is basically Twitter but the Chinese version a Chinese journalist has published a story regarding black myth Wukong and states that the backlash the game is receiving in the west is due to their rejection of Western values the Chinese post stated that because Wukong Studio which is called game science is rejecting these woke Consulting agencies and refusing to work with them Western websites are attempting to run hit pieces against game science to derail their success in the west this coincides with an article that came out in 2023 by IGN from two writers who have both gone and Protected Their Twitter accounts since this article has gotten attention and it's titled how black myth wukong's developers history of sexism is complicating its Journey to the West according to what IGN says here game science is a sexist bigoted game developer that harasses and belittles women within the games industry they said and I quote for an indie Studio that has only released mobile titles within the country this widespread Acclaim over black myth wuk Kong is a largely unprecedented feat particularly for a game that has not been released yet but beneath the luster of the souls likee is a studio plagued by claims of sexism several posts have surfaced from Chinese social media Weeoo written by individuals from the studio that contained multiple references to genitalia and sexual inuendos these have provoked a backlash among some in the games Community many of whom are women this was coupled by recruitment posters by the studio produced in 2015 which featured images and headlines that point to a culture of ingrained sexism in game science ignan spoke to several women familiar with gaming culture as well as the games and Technology industry in China many of whom requested to be anonymous for fear of backlash from fans of game science and the broader games community in the eyes of many female players game science has a notably negative reputation said Jen a Chinese game designer who's now based outside of China I admire their dedication and work I had high expectations for their game until I came across their misogynistic remarks around 2021 which was reported in the news founded in 2014 game science is a hongju based Studio formed initially by seven X10 Cent game employees during their time in 10cent games they worked on a free-to-play MMO RPG called Ashura online black myth Wukong can be said to be the spiritual successor of this MMO with both games based on the Chinese literary classic Journey to the West a year later Fang G one of the co-founders of game science left to form game science along with his colleagues after releasing a slew of mobile titles game science decided to focus on the development of black myth Wukong in 2017 Fang in particular has an outsized presence within the games industry with a penchant for sharing introspective insights on game development peppered with crude metaphors and burish inuendos in 2007 he penned a lengthy article titled who has murdered our game when he delved into the difficulties of game development in China Fang compared filed projects to still born babies given that many games had to cease development despite being worked on for a year or so he then brought up this analogy is it because the sperm isn't viral enough is the pregnancy Too Short is the baby lacking nutrition are the doctors in charge of cerian sections lowly skilled why can't we produce a healthy child or product to many who were familiar with Fang's mannerisms these were just the harmless quirks of a game developer who as vulgar as he may seem is steadfast about his vision for game making several fans have excused his behavior with them chalking this up to a straightup talking passion for game Mak making there's no need to debate many literary Giants also use foul language let's just experience the work ourselves a single Beauty can cover up all the ugliness so let's just wait for the results but I will support it because of their courage and that they were able to put so much culture and history into the game reads one response written in Japanese to a video discussing the controversy end quote so this Fang guy who spearheading Wukong is clearly a very Ecentric and weird kind of dude which doesn't really surprise me in the slightest to be real with you when it comes to game developers that are considered Visionaries like your coimas or Miyazaki all of these individuals have their own weird mannerisms or Styles obviously comparing hitaka Miyazaki who made the souls born genre is not someone known for saying crude things but the truth is that behind closed doors whether we want to admit it or not everyone says things or has quirks that are weird in some way it's just obvious here this Fang individ idual is just very open about his opinions and then what he also thinks of others which personally I think is fine his statement in terms of comparing a cancelled game or struggling game to say a baby that dies in childbirth is weird yes but remember again he's not someone that is born in the west his mannerisms and how he conveys things likely make much more sense in his native tongue and for a website like IGN which apparently Champions diversity they do seem to be one of many websites that are constantly trying to break down the Asian game developer side of the world this is mostly because in terms of the West versus East Asian games are still way less riddled with identity politics and woke nonsense compared to their Western counterparts um if you're a creative working in triaa which I did for many many years um put this stuff up to your higher-ups and if they don't see the value in what you're asking for when you ask for Consultants when you ask for research go have a coffee with your marketing team and just terrify them with the possibility of what's going to happen if they don't give you what you want there's an obvious agenda here being pushed by IGN and other sites to attack and Destroy game science's image but why well in that same tweet by pirate nation which was then made into its own article by nich gamer.com it's stated that black myth wukong's Dev studio is being unfairly targeted because they rejected sweet baby inc's advances when it came to working together according to the weeo post that same Chinese journalist who remains unnamed says in their post that sweet baby Inc themselves targeted black myth Wukong specifically and they wanted to help game science's devs in making their game more acceptable and appealing to Western audiences except game science obviously declined because swed baby was asking for7 million freaking dollars to consult on their new game which is insane to me not only that the price is just way too high I mean this is an indie game Studio by the way imagine what SBI is charging these bigger companies it's insane but if you're a game Studio or publisher paying anywhere in the million dooll range to have sweet baby in come in and ruin your game and turn it into a woke nuclear Wasteland you're an idiot I don't care how long you've worked in games what position you hold or anything like that if anyone watching this works in games and is debating on spending any kind of money to have SBI work on their game you're a [ __ ] and your game deserves to fail I can't believe that's a real price point imagine paying someone Millions to ruin your life's work and sink your entire studio just insane this reminds me of what Thomas merer said in the past he's the CEO of Moon Studios they made ory in the blind forest and they're currently working on no rest for the wicked he also came under Fire for saying Moon Studios refuses to work with Consultants on their games which of course in response Thomas mer got criticism from game people but he explained at length that the reason why he doesn't believe in Consulting agencies is because they never actually faced the choices of their own decisions this is how Consulting agencies pretty much always go down a game Studio or publisher hire sweet baby ink or whatever other ones that are out there you pay them millions they tell you what to change about your game now your product has no Edge to it at all everything has been sanded off the characters World story all of it is just worse now SBI collects their paycheck and then they leave you to work your game then comes out nobody likes it cuz everything about it is now ass and your game reviews poorly it sells nothing boom you fail and you close down yet sweet baby and people like them just keep on existing because whether you succeed or fail SBI doesn't lose any money either way because they already got your money when you paid them so if your company Fails Like Thomas merer said these Consulting agencies never actually have to face the errors of their own decisions instead other people usually in the hundreds have to lose their livelihoods and have their lies uprooted and sweet baby just continues their Crusade of ruining everything as they keep going onward the Weeoo Chinese post also points out that sweet baby has deliberately ruined games like God of War Ragnarok and Spider-Man 2 in the past which I agree on both examples I think the previous games in both of those franchises were much better than their sequels at least from a character and story standpoint anyways so Fang of game science rejecting sweet baby Inc because he knows that if he were to let them in black myth Wukong would be irreversibly damaged by their involvement was a really smart decision they would also likely push Game signs to include things like people of color within the game and gender swab many characters into women for diversity reasons essentially if you want your game to be made by committee and be made for the modern audience you call someone like sweet baby Inc and I could give plenty of examples of how games related to SBI have lost Millions already like Spider-Man 2 Suicide Squad and entire Studio closures of Plenty as well they don't call it the sweet baby kiss of death for nothing dear viewer these these parasites are killing video games and there's more versions of them that are popping up all the time like baby ghost sugar baby recently too and even hit detection all of these companies are in bed with one another and they are siphoning the life force of video games in general to fill their pockets with money and ruin as many franchises as they possibly can and we've seen also a plenty the games that do the best are the ones that reject these very Consultants look at Hogwarts Legacy power world and so on black myth Wukong is currently set up to be a massive hit for game science I wouldn't be surprised if it breaks records across the board but the reality is that its scores will likely be lower than originally intended and it'll have nothing to do with the game's quality or anything like that but instead simply because Wukong doesn't bend the knee to woke identity politics but we know bending the knee to Dei is never a good option either go look at Assassin's Creed Shadows recently the game's director even stated they took literal emotional damage when Elon Musk denounced their game and called it crap that game's director's name is Mark Alexis cot and he was speaking with Steven datillo of game file when he stated that Elon Musk broke him emotionally he said and I quote that tweet generated emotions that the first thing I wanted to do was go back on X that I had deleted and just Tweet back and I just took a step back I have a mindfulness app on my phone and I did a bit of mindfulness to try to explore the emotions that this tweet created for me Elon it's sad he's just feeding hatred I had a lot of three-word replies that came to mind but attacking someone like Elon I will not convince people about our point of view as a team yasuke is very very grounded in the history of the franchise and how we make our choices we've got a super mysterious historical character from which not much is known about and for us it was what we wanted in Assassin's Creed what Elon says is not the game that we're building people will have to play the game for themselves and if within the first 11 minutes and 47 seconds they are not convinced of what we're doing we can have the discussion I was reviewing the game very recently and I was like the answer is there I just hope and wish that people can keep an open mind about this and see the game for what it is it's an Assassin's Creed game and I believe the best one we've ever built end quote Mark can think all he wants the proof is that what his Studio has presented thus far in terms of Shadows has been nothing but negative feedback the game is racist I mean you're a fake black samurai who wanders Japan killing and looting Japanese people for their belongings as they just helplessly look onward and the fact the game has yasuke literally beheading people and crushing Japanese men's skulls like candy it's ridiculous Elon Musk is right though that Dei does kill art and I think this director knows deep down that Elon is right I think what the director of Shadows was saying here within context is that the director is fighting with his own personal beliefs about the game because he likely knows that yasuke was a terrible decision to add but Ubisoft needed the ESG points so he's spending the interview trying to convince others but really himself that he and his team made the right decision but they clearly didn't there's so many problems by the way being revealed about Shadows from especially Japanese players like how rice is growing when the sakura trees are in bloom which means Ubisoft doesn't understand how Seasons work in Japan not to mention the plentiful of amounts of Chinese architecture and let's not forget the collector's edition box and statues which have the wrong symbologies when it comes to Clan banners and armor not to mention people have pointed out that the Kani on the collector's box is completely wrong and mistranslated I'm not kidding and of course the other fact that shadows's main battle theme for Yas is a weird rap hip-hop take on Japanese music which is just so goddamn racist and toned deaf it's insane I would show it to you but I would get copyright stried unfortunately but anyway nothing is right here and the game is not only a woke disaster it's historically completely wrong down to it Seasons weather architecture history all of it I've never seen Ubisoft fumble in Assassin's Creed setting with this amount of bad translations than ever before but at least Shadows had a Japanese consultant who clearly was well overpaid because they do not do their job if they couldn't even catch things like the wrong kanji on the collector's box like come on man and this is the difference between a game that bends the knee and a game that refuses to like black myth Wukong and so I want to put on that like very mercenary for a second and talk about the way that we decide how we're going to sell the art that we make and how we're going to approach the audiences that we make it for because I think so often when people like us get told you know from higher ups or from society at large this isn't what players want it's not a conversation about demographic sorry content it's a conversation about demographics and I think that in our industry and in so many creative Industries if you want to look at film and television and any art form we start training our core demographics has a fixed and static value something that does not want to change and something that is locked in place so despite like the changing face of audiences despite the changing face of conferences like this one we still look at our core demographics and say okay they're white Siz hetero males and we cater almost exclusively to them and the problem is that we don't just cater to them like you know here here's something that we think you'll enjoy we cater them the way that we cater to like a picky baby we feed them the same thing that we know that they love and we keep on feeding it we're like here you go we you love it eat this eat this eat this so that then when they get anything else they react as a picky baby would would just be like oh no thank you I do not want this and we've actually done this so long that what we're doing is creating an entire nation of picky babies and they make us scared to deviate from what we actually want to do just in case these picky babies don't want to play our games not to mention that Wukong has negative press of Plenty for seemingly no reason it seems yet AC Shadows has nothing but good publicity from from the very same websites claiming that Fang of game science is sexist and so on what we're witnessing here is clear media bias that is being created to shape narratives to fit their own agendas this is why I do what I do fellas because if I don't speak out about this places like IGN and more they'll just get away with this they genuinely think you're all stupid and you won't notice that any of this is happening and you'll just open your wallets like good sheep and buy the slot because you don't want to be labeled racist but I'm here to tell you that it's all Bs and you should never listen to what these websites are saying cuz their agendas are designed to divide and make things worse the West hates how the East won't Bend to their whims and it's because the East keeps winning while they're losing Millions take this article from a few days ago from bounding titled Vinland Saga editor says manga should not Pander to Western audiences I don't allow myself to be influenced by so-called political correctness abroad these words come from the current editor-in-chief of kadan's weekly afternoon a manga magazine and the editor and she's name is Akira Kai and he claims that the West's influences have zero power over what they do with their IPs and franchises manga passion a German news website was interviewing Akira Kanai and they asked him whether the audiences outside of Japan's influence what his editorial team does or the franchises within them do and I quote no not really for example there are various codes against a depiction of violence against a depiction of nudity whether male or female or religious codes that I follow however however I think that there are no fundamental differences in the population in terms of what they perceive as important be it Japan Germany China or South Korea even if it is the case on a political level I don't allow myself to be influenced by so-called political correctness abroad and design The Works accordingly I think that if it's interesting it will usually be understood regardless of whether you come from Africa Chile or Greenland I've never made a big deal of it so far but even if a work takes up a very Japanese theme for example or a German work a German theme a Chinese work a Chinese theme in the end the rot is the same I think stopping a work because it deals with a problem that is too Japanese or specifically to do something that hardly ever happens more specifically I wonder if there is a difference in Japanese entertainment content between works that are internationally successful is it the works that focus more on the Japanese Market or a global market I don't think it's possible to create works that are exact in the middle nor would such works really appeal anyway the mindset that Japanese Publishers will get poorer and poorer if they don't expand overseas as pathetic and should be abandoned now that it is possible to read and draw manga abroad I hope that the manga fan Community itself will grow no matter where they come from and no matter what religion they belong to so when it comes to the question of whether I think globalization is important I can say that it's much more fun this way end quote Kai is absolutely right and if we could just take his mindset when it comes to content moderation and apply by that across literally everything we'd be living in the most Golden Ages of right now for media across the board really because he's right you don't need to change what your product is to appeal to other audiences what I find and this is true of YouTube as well is that the more you change yourself to fit something that you're already not comfortable with the more inauthentic you'll be it would make no sense for me to suddenly Rebrand myself as a makeup Channel or toy unboxing because that's not who I am and I don't think changing who I am is going to appeal to people who wouldn't normally like me because if I did that then I wouldn't be me in the end which means ultimately what's the point it's the old saying of when you make something for everyone you end up making something for No One you can't realistically cater to every demographic it's impossible life business art whatever it's like picking your stats or class in an RPG you can't be a warrior Mage thief and a Summoner all at once in a game like Final Fantasy Tactics for example you can mix things sure but you can't use all of the abilities at once instead you have to choose which things you want to specialize in and then you hone in on those and BuildCraft that character to fit that role perfectly and that's the same thing when it comes to life some of us are Warrior classes some are Mages other red Mages or Hunters Berserkers ninjas whatever the point here is that you can't reasonably Pander to everything equally without losing that authenticity in the process and with black myth Wukong they provve this instead of making their game for a modern audience they're making making their game unapologetically Chinese and doubling down on the mythology and style and funnily Enough by catering to Chinese fans specifically the game will find its own audience in the west that also likes that sort of stuff too and in Assassin's Creed case what they're doing is actually worse because theyve taken something that was one thing a historical action series and they turned it into a woke di disaster that wants to cater to both Assassin's Creed fans and the sweet baby inks of the world too which just ends up making a game for neither really cuz you're not giving each group what they want specifically the same could be said about Star Wars it was made primarily for boys Disney turned it into a female brand and now it's for nobody and Akira Kanai is the mentality all of these people need pretty much you reject whatever is trying to weasel its way in and you stay true to yourself and then you just push forward confidently my content is not made for woke lunatics because I do not care for them I don't want to cater to weirdos who think there's a in genders because I don't care about that I just stick to what I know and what I believe in and I'm confident by doing it that I will find my own audience like yourself who's watching this right now if we all cater to everyone's needs constantly everything would just be a big gray bowl of mush with all the edges gone no spice no flavor nothing ju all because you don't want to offend anyone and then you just end up with is just something that's made for nobody and then you just fade into Oblivion if black myth wuk song wants to sell millions they'll just keep pushing sweet baby Inc away with all of their Force they should even make a post saying that they reject them that'll honestly sell them thousands of copies easily right there in the end the more we reject this nonsense the better off will'll all be and I truly do believe that so please support the things that actually don't hate you and keep giving the middle finger to these morons that clearly hate us for simply being who we are thank you for watching subscribe share and like the video thanks to my patrons and have a wonderful day day and I'll see you in the next one
